I think today it is the 3rd game (Grischuk vs Bacrot) where I can see an ending when N is stronger than B in Nalchik...
It seems that B is stronger mainly in the middlegame in their games, somehow funny, isn't it ?

Here's the game:



Seems 45...c3 was a better try.

Next post is a fantasy variation by Rybka.

Fantasy variation with 45...c3:




Of course I added Rxd5+ just to show the draw more clearly.

thyx, I will try to search tomorrow also the other 2 which I remember for sure I have seen in previous rounds...one was yesterda or the day before yesterday and it was simply N+ps versus B+ps in an ending which I was sure it is drawn 🙂
